Abstract [en]
Stainless steels have undergone more than a century of continuous development, during which various advanced grades—such as lean duplex, super austenitic, and high-nitrogen stainless steels—have been introduced. Despite remarkable progress, the manufacturing of stainless steel remains a complex process that spans multiple critical stages, including stainless steelmaking, solidification and casting, continuous casting, heat treatment, electroslag and vacuum arc remelting, as well as both hot and cold rolling operations. Ensuring excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical performance of the final products continues to be a central focus of research and production. The current Special Issue (SI) entitled ‘Advanced Stainless Steel—from Making, Shaping, Treating to Products’ has collected eight research papers focusing on various aspects of steel production, e.g., inclusions in steelmaking and continuous casting processes, continuous casting processes and the quality of stainless steel casting, heat treatment, corrosion of steels, and fatigue of steels. This summary aims to contribute to the state-of-the-art of the development of steel production.
